I got a PNY geforce 9800 gt 1gb graphics card from bestbuy and once I got it I noticed it didnt come with a power supply cable which most of the 9800s require. Anyone know why it didnt come with the power supply cable.
Because its on your power supply already unless you didn,t bother to check before you purchased the card!
There are two versions of the 9800 GT card - a 600 MHz version that needs the 6-pin power cord, and a slightly slower 550 MHz version that doesn't (i.e. the 550 MHz version uses < 75W that the PCI Express slot can provide without external power).
the suitable thank you to confirm you have sufficient juice stepping into, is to function up each and all the means standards in you computing device IE - Video, HDD, Sound, CPU, RAM, and so on., then upload 30%. it fairly is the means furnish quantity you like. form is likewise an argument and length. some towers heavily isn't waiting to greater healthful specific sizes.
You're talking about a molex/peripheral to the 6pin pci express adapter? some come with them, some don't should of checked the box, if it's supposed to come with one then take it back and say that it didn't come with an adapter. A lot of high watt power supplies come with pci express power cables, are you sure you don't have one?
